“It never feels like work. I get to go to the studio and be with my friends every day and write new things and experiment with new sounds. We just have a blast.”

I just wanted to write the songs. I never wanted to sing them.

I think artists are aware that talking gives a songwriter so much material. If they just tell us what’s happening, it’s so much easier for us to write a song that’s specific to them.

I would give anything to hold your hands like this again.

We could be history in the making.

Still finding silly string in weird places.

I write songs for myself, but I never keep them. I’m like, ‘O.K., that was my therapy – it’s out of my body now. I’m going to give it to somebody else so it can be their therapy, too.’

Women often don’t want to be typecast as the girl that’s sad.

There is so much power in vulnerability, and I am proud to be that typecast.

It’s ingrained in people’s minds that it’s a typecast and a stereotype that women are just emotional and crazy.

Plantin’ lemon trees since I was twenty-three

People are going to assume whatever they want to assume.

Hula-hooping. It makes me feel free. My stepsister introduced me to it. I used to have panic attacks all the time, and she hula-hooped to cope with her own anxiety.

Stylistically, things are becoming cooler. People are trying different things and combining genres.

I think that women are afraid to be vulnerable because they think it makes them look weak.

Working with new people can be really hard and nerve-wracking. When you don’t know the person, it’s like being on a blind date.

I have, like, sensory overload problems.

Treat your body like a home where your soul feels safe.

The blessings feel different when there is love and peace in your heart.

Love is meant to inspire you, and add positive energy to your soul. It is not meant to make you feel drained and powerless.

I hope you find light in all the wounds once you felt dark.

I don’t feel that it is necessary to know exactly what I am.

Let yourself free from everything that makes you feel hopeless.

Have you ever heard silence? How do you hear the silence? You don’t, you feel it. And they stared at the silence between them.

It happens in the quiet when that buzzing in the back of my mind fades out and I can’t do anything but simply feel.
